"Have you ever spent a few days setting up a new development tree? Have you ever spent several days setting up several development trees? Have you even spent weeks trying to perfect all your development trees using a set of best practices?

If the answer to any of the above answers is 'yes', then you'll like Tree Surgeon!

Tree Surgeon 1.0
Tree Surgeon 1.0 is now ready for download. Its pretty simple, but it is fully functional. Its based on Mike Roberts's article How to setup a .NET Development Tree [my post on this].

Download the installer, and just run the GUI. Your generated project will appear in a sub-directory of the Tree Surgeon Application directory and you should move it to wherever you like to develop on your machine (the meta-root if you read the article above.)

Your generated project has a Visual Studio solution waiting for you in the src folder. Also, if you go into the project root directory, you can run an automated build. ..."

This is pretty cool.

In about 2 seconds you get a complete dev tree, already setup witn NAnt/NUnit and ready to be compiled.

The only issue from my seat is that out of the box it creates C# projects. But that's a little thing and the source is available...
